Profile

I ship production software

Full stack engineer working with React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node/NestJS, and Python.

  • From architecture to deploy, then iterate
  • Production platforms, not throwaway demos
  • AI in the workflow, never instead of judgement

The right tool for the job

Cursor and VS Code to write. Ghostty and Postman to ship. LLMs chosen per task, not by habit.

  • Cursor and VS Code for writing and reviewing code
  • Ghostty in the terminal, Postman for APIs
  • Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, Kimi, Gemini, and so many more; every model has its use case

Then iterate on what users need

How I work

Build. Ship. Learn. Repeat.

I like teams that care about architecture, developer experience, and useful software.

  • Explore ideas, then implement with intent
  • Iterate on what users and businesses actually need
  • Treat AI as a tool, not a substitute for engineering
